Partner with designers, artists, and producers to craft gameplay experiences from concept to live

Bachelor’s degree (or higher) in Computer Science/Software Engineering or equivalent work experience

1+ years developing on Roblox / Minecraft / another UGC gaming platform, either as a hobby or professionally

1+ years of experience in software development (games or related fields)

A strong foundation in CS fundamentals and problem-solving

Experience with game engines, scripting languages (Lua a plus), and version control

Excellent communication and a collaborative, team-first mindset

A passion for creating games that resonate with players

Bonus Points for:

Shipped games or features on Roblox or similar platforms

Game jam or modding experience—projects you’ve loved building

Familiarity with live game systems (analytics, economy tuning, etc.)

What Makes This Role Exciting:

Ship features in games played by millions

Join creative brainstorms - not just code implementation

Learn from a world-class team with deep game dev experience

Be part of a fast-growing company backed by top investors (a16z, Makers Fund, Dune Ventures)
